if it was hetero chat ads, your work would be okay with it though right?
just throwing the other side of the arguement out there...
and accessing a website with the word "hardcore" in the title at work is pushing it a little too.
i've never been to this site at work.
play some free arcade games or something.

Gay Chat is the name of a respectful Hardcore producer/DJ. Born in Liverpool, England he had begun his interest in music at the tender age of 4. He received his first record player as a Christmas gift at age 7 and it all went up from there. He would scratch and play with his favorite Beatles records, and in the process of learning and experimenting he accidentally broke a few. As time past and technology in the musical arts soared, by the 1980s at age 12 he obtained his first mixer/vinyl players along with decent speakers and a mic, using his own money from working as a local paper boy. All of this work paid off later on at age 16 when he had become a respectful turntablest, introducing the UK to American Gangster Rap and Hip-Hop. Around the age of 20 the electronic scene was on the rise coming from Chicago. Gay Chat was sure to check out what this entirely new Genre sounded like, and he fell in love with it. He had got himself into the rapidly growing rave scene and landed many gigs through out the UK and some in Germany/Spain. Around 1995 he got into producing the wonderful techno tracks that he played at all of the hot raves. Using the powerful synthesizers and software of the time he bust out some amazing beats, and on accident created some rather hardcore tracks. This mistake lead to a peaked interest in the growing hardcore branch of electronic music. He would eventually work with some of the best names in the business such as DJ Ham,Brisk,Scott Brown,Neophyte,Hixxy,Breeze,Styles,Dougal,Gammer, and more. In the early 2000s he had turned his status from epic to legendary with the track "Love 4 Other Men" - Gay Chat ft. Darren Styles. To this day Gay Chat is working day in and day out, mixing and producing to keep the hardcore scene alive and growing, winning the respect of thousands upon thousands of ravers.
and that is why Gay Chat is featured on HHC.com

could you be more of a douchebag? seriously, all he wants to be able to do is visit hhc at work, and you have to turn this into some stupid shit rant about how society has a double standard against gays.
newsflash: anything against the mainstream is going to get negative attention, get the hell over it. taking out your frustration on a person on a music forum who isn't able to view the site because of some ridiculous ad that no one's ever going to click is really, really stupid.

I'm assuming it was Google AdWords which are bland text based and based on key words and YOUR browsing patterns. If it was a graphic thing, like two dudes having a sword fight I'd agree (much less if it was any visual pornographic material). But for the mean time - don't click it and your work will never know.

Ladies, please settle down! :-)
Milo: yeah, its a graphic ad, but not graphic in the sense of *graphic* - just an image.

Are all the people that want to access Happyhardcore.com Hetrosexuals?
Maybe, just maybe, some are gay and would welcome this pop-up to redirect them to another area of their life that they enjoy?

you're telling me you use google ads to find random internet websites to chat on?
was pretty sure people stopped going into completely random chatrooms to flirt with 50 year old men posing as children when they graduated from using AOL in 5th grade

Yes, that is what I said and what I do.
Before responding with an inane reply, read what I said.

I think it would be unusual/unnecessary to come on hhc.com and see ads about dating and stuff for any sexual orientation!
Yeah Beatport, Imodownload and musical related ads i can see appropriate!
I'm not homophobic, but it's still not needed! There wont be many hits!
